@cathythorbecke A simulated exploit is a warning, not proof of a live account takeover. But it shows why AI safety cannot stop at national borders: platforms, attackers, and models do not.

Yan explains why a pause in the AI trade could bring crypto’s debasement trade back. “AI was very deflationary and kind of counter to the debasement thesis. If the AI trade wouldn’t play out with the same degree of certainty as it did before, that brings debasement back on.”

Jeff Bezos wants AI to approve Miami building permits in 10 seconds: “Miami should have an AI application that reads your building permit and it should give you a yes or a no in 10 seconds. Why does it take months and months and months to get a building permit? It doesn’t make any sense.”

Here is the exciting world of AI. My presentation of the cancer mind map after a decade of work to prove the hypothesis that empowering the innate and adaptive immune system could cure cancer. So I dictated some of my talk to an AI platform and became the "source" that is mentioned in this audio... amazingly, it took my mind map and created this conversation! Take a listen, it explains beautifully how we think about attacking cancer.

This thread reminded me of Thiel's take on biology and the excuses of biologists for why we aren't solving hard problems (I have a biology background and work as a scientist and still agree with him). My take is that AI won't solve biology, but it will help us understand it at a deeper level. Saying that it is impossible is a lazy take. Saying that AI will solve all problems is a lazy take too. There is an in-between where AI will support and help scientists move things forward. I am really tired of the excuses of the gatekeeper boomer scientists and the hype of the AI bros.

The Information’s Laura Bratton explains how those errant changes could happen: "Maybe there was an AI agent that continued to retry a task that it was completing incorrectly and a customer didn't realize that the AI agent kept trying over and over again, and they were getting charged for it."

Seniors deserve to know when they’re talking to an AI chatbot instead of a real person. Without that transparency, they’re more vulnerable to scams and manipulation. That’s why I’m introducing a bill that requires companies to disclose when AI is used. AI has got to work for older Americans, not against them.
